Okay, now this is getting silly, rather embarrassing, and annoying. Why the hell hasn’t the UK done this yet?

Apart from the Don’s reposte on the invertebrate status of UK politicians there is of course the Lord’s Spiritual who would oppose it and also the Lord’s Temporal who despite their alleged secularism suffer from the misnomer of being of this time when their minds are more than likely dislocated somewhere in the UK’s past.

Good for France, anyone who says “Marriage” is only between a man & a woman is talking nonsense. if you look through history and different countries you will see any number of different ideas/customs of marriage. someone will always complain about change to a society due to fear but that shouldn’t stop people who love each other from being able legally say so and isn’t that the whole idea of marriage anyway.

The opponents of this new law are now challenging its constitutionality – on what grounds I cannot guess. It is sad to see this degree of bigotry in the homeland of the Enlightenment, but the Catholic Church’s ancient position in France is still strong and deeply conservative. Voltaire’s call “Écrasez l’infâme!”, which he aimed at clerical superstition, still needs to be heard.

That said, however, it is great to see France take this step in the spirit of “liberté, égalité, fraternité”.

In forty or fifty year’s time, these guys will have to sit down with their grand kids and have to explain to their (the kids’) disbelieving ears and incredulous eyes why they (the bigots pictured above) were so retarded and hateful.

Today’s bigots, hopefully, will look as foolish as those bigots in the US who demonstrated against “black/white” marriages back in the day; or those social-retards who objected to women voting, and so on.

There will be a lot of egg-on-face in the not-too-distance future, methinks.

I was very disappointed by the reaction of an important segment of the French population who has shown an enormous hostility towards homosexuals. I thought France was a very advanced country on social issues and suddenly they organized demonstrations against gay marriage where hundreds of thousands of people cried out insults and threats (with some attacks on gays) as if they were in a bigot fundamentalist society. I didn’t expect this to happen in France.

The RCC is deep rooted in France. If priests say protest against gay marriage, the sheeples rush to obey!
